Story · Théâtre Gallo-Romain de Fourvière
You're standing on Fourvière hill, close to the top, at the ancient Roman theatre of Lyon. Back then the city was a Roman colony called Lugdunum. Look at that half circle of stone steps, set deep into the slope. The Romans simply used the hillside as a ready-made grandstand.
